One of the issues that Geoff highlights on his blog is the importance of networking and listening to new voices. One of the platforms that he uses to meet new people is LinkedIn.
Many of us connect in the virtual world of LinkedIn first. When we find a common ground we try to meet in life.
LinkedIn is a treasure trove for making connections and expanding your network. Many people may just use it to have a public resume online they can refer to for work related matters. This is a very limited and static use of a dynamic platform. Others use LinkedIn’s full potential by updating their profile regularly, post on the home feed and commenting on posts from others, and they are active in groups.
If you wish to get the most out of LinkedIn and need a little help, you need to connect with James Potter. James is an expert at helping people, directors, CEO’s & corporates turn LinkedIn into the success they seek, be it sales, new business or new projects using LinkedIn.
And to prove that Geoff means what he says: we met on LinkedIn. We stayed in touch through the groups and when my travels took me to the UK, Geoff took the day off to meet me at my conference in London. True networking!

Thank you for the kind words and also drawing the parallels between LinkedIn and networking in real life, it is just the same and drives the same fabulous results. But just like face to face networking you need to make sure you do it the right way to make it work! 🙂 Best wishes, James – The Linked In Man
Thank you for really doing yourself what you advice others to do!
